As I know all too well, Tommy Doyle's has two locations in Cambridge. Last Friday night, I told some friends to meet me at the Harvard Square location for a free-beer event, but it turned out to be in Kendall. Sorry, guys. Anyway, I'd been meaning to take a photo of TD's poorly punctuated sign for a while, but it would never come out right on my dumbphone. Thanks to someone else's iPhone, I finally got a clear shot of it.

Theoretically, this sign could say Tommy Doyle's Irish Bars, or, if there was more than one guy named Tommy Doyle, it could be Tommy Doyles' Irish Bar. But there has to be an apostrophe in here somewhere.
